LIFE2018 - Lapland International Forum for Education
The second LIFE conference, organized by the University of Lapland and VisitEDUfinn, takes place January 16-20, 2018 in Rovaniemi, Finland. Throughout the event you will hear from experts on various aspects of Finnish education and their latest research and ideas, and school visits enable you to see the Finnish education system in practice.
Learn from the famous Finnish education, see how everyday life works in Finnish schools, talk with the local teachers and students, and listen to the top Finnish education experts, such as Linda Liukas, to gain new ideas to support your daily work. This event offers an exclusive opportunity to visit ordinary Finnish primary schools and kindergartens. This year you also have the opportunity to visit a vocational college and the brand-new Ounasrinne School which is a trendsetter for a new kind of community building, including a wide range of facilities such as a school, a library, a youth club, and a health centre.
Want to learn new pedagogical skills in an innovative way? The University of Lapland has agreed to present an engaging workshop titled "A Playful Learning Adventure". This is a special opportunity for a limited number of people presented exclusively for our participants as an optional extra.
Alongside the professional aspect is the opportunity to engage in a wide variety of optional Arctic experiences to truly make the most of your experience.
